Summary: Some portability fixes for running on a MacOSX host
Description:
This patch addresses a few minor linuxisms or (non-BSD)isms in buildroot's
shell scripts.
1. Replaces "cp -a" with "cp -pPR". "-a" is just a conveinence for -pPR,
and none of the BSD-derived systems I've checked have it.
2. My 'sed' reqires an explicit empty string after -i, or else it will use
the "-e" arg as the extension for backups. Oops.
3. My 'sed' requires an EOL or semicolon before the closing curly in a
{foo...} construct.
4. Apple's GCC prints a version string that dependencies.sh can't handle.
This change removes any parenthesized bits from the version string before
looking for numbers, so it can handle version strings like
powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc.
build 5250)

1) I'd rather prefer if you could expand the host-sed check so we build a
working sed for your system.
2) That cp -a patch looks ok. For files, we usually (try to) use "cp
-dpf", so please use -dpf resp. -Rdpf
Please attach a new split patch with just the cp changes.
3) I think that the current dependencies.sh should deal with this, please
verify.
Thanks in advance for attaching updated, separate patches that take the
comments above into account.
cheers,
Bernhard
